THE DATE OF THIS PROSPECTUS IS _______________, 2002 PROSPECTUS SUMMARY This summary highlights material information found in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the "Risk Factors." ABOUT OUR COMPANY We were incorporated in Nevada on August 26, 1986 as P.R. Stocks, Inc. Since that time, we have had three name changes and been the surviving corporation in one merger: - On February 26, 1992, we changed our name to National Health & Safety Corporation; - On November 12, 1992, we changed our name to Medgain International Corporation; - On June 20, 1994, we changed our name to E-Rex, Inc.; and - On February 20, 1999, we merged with Plantech Communications Systems, Inc., a British Columbia, Canada corporation. Plantech was a development stage company in the software, computer, and Internet business that had no revenues. We have an $12,817,663 accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2001. We do not have any significant operating history or revenues, and our independent accountant has qualified his report, noting that our significant losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue in business. Our primary product is the Dragonfly, a portable, multi-function color printer, copier, fax and scanner with Internet and e-mail capabilities. We presently have completed the initial prototype of the Dragonfly. We are not currently generating any revenues from the sale of the Dragonfly product, and do not expect to generate any revenues from it during this fiscal year. We currently generate a limited amount of income from our Internet consulting business, which is not our primary business. Our executive offices are located at 11645 Biscayne Boulevard, Suite 210, Miami, Florida 33181. Our telephone number is (305) 895-3350 and our website address is www.e-rex.net. Information contained on our website or on any other website does not constitute a part of this prospectus. ABOUT THE CONVERTIBLE NOTE Under the convertible note to Auxiliarius, they are obligated to provide us with a minimum of $10,000 per week, assuming the following conditions are satisfied: - this Registration Statement has been declared effective and remains effective; - our stock price is $0.004 or higher during the 15 days before the funding; and - our stock trading volume is within a specified range depending on our stock price. 2 The note has an interest rate of 10% per year. Auxiliarius is obligated to provide us with, and the maximum outstanding principal amount of the convertible note is, $500,000. Auxiliarius is the holder of warrants to acquire up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.008 per share, exercisable for two years from their date of issuance.

You should consider carefully the following information, together with the other information contained in this prospectus, before you decide to buy our common stock. If any of the following events actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In this case, the market price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. We have never operated profitably, we have generated very little revenues, and we may never become profitable, making it difficult or impossible for our investors to evaluate our business. We have a limited operating history upon which potential investors may evaluate our performance. To date, we have generated an accumulated deficit of more than $13,964,463. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, we incurred net losses of $3,535,831 and $8492,853, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2002, our net loss was $1,146,800. Because of our lack of cash, we have issued large amounts of stock to pay salaries and some accounts payable. We expect that our operating expenses will increase over the next few years as we continue to develop and market our Dragonfly product, and as a result we expect losses to continue. In addition, our future operations may not be profitable. We must consider the likelihood of our success relative to the problems, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the development and operation of a new business. If we do not obtain adequate financing from this offering or other sources to fund our future operations and to complete development of our Dragonfly product, we may not be able to successfully implement our business plan. We have only developed a prototype of our Dragonfly product, and as a result we have not generated any revenues from the sale of the Dragonfly, and will not during this fiscal year. We have funded a large portion of our operations through the issuance of stock to employees and consultants, and unless we are successful in obtaining adequate financing, we will continue to do so. Although we had sufficient capital to complete the initial prototype of the Dragonfly, if we do not obtain adequate financing, we cannot finalize the development of our Dragonfly product. Although it is difficult to estimate the amount of additional financing we will require, we anticipate that over the next two years we will need approximately $120,000 to finalize the development of the Dragonfly, $1,500,000 for marketing and sales expenses, and $800,000 for general working capital expenses. We do not know where this capital will come from. If we are not able to raise sufficient capital, we will not be able to implement our business plan. We have not generated any revenues from our Dragonfly product and do not expect to be profitable for several more years. For the year ended December 31, 2001, we generated a total of $87,185 in revenues, all of which was consulting fees related to our Internet consulting division. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, our consulting division generated $10,930 in revenues, representing all of our revenues for the period. We do not expect to generate any revenues from our Dragonfly product this fiscal year, and when we do begin to generate revenues from the product, we do not expect to be profitable for several years, if at all. 4 If our primary product, the Dragonfly, does not obtain widespread market acceptance, our sales and profitability will suffer. We are relying on the success of one primary product, the Dragonfly. If this product is not widely accepted by the marketplace, we may not generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations, and may not be profitable. We do not have a patent on our product, and as a result it may be duplicated by a competitor. We have conducted a patent study on the hardware and operating system of the Dragonfly, and have determined that it is unlikely that some or all of the product may be able to be protected by patents. Although the operating system, circuit boards, control systems, and Internet interface are proprietary to E-Rex, we cannot be certain that others will not independently develop or market substantially similar products in competition with the Dragonfly. There may be other products on the market similar to the Dragonfly that are from substantially larger and more established companies, which may make it impossible for us to compete. We believe that no other company manufacturers a product exactly like the Dragonfly. If released, the Dragonfly will compete with other portable devices from well-known companies such as Hewlett-Packard, Cannon, Brother, Docuport, Palm, and Xerox. Although our management believes that our product is superior in functionality, those companies, as well as future competitors, have substantially more financial and technical resources than us and have estab- lished a reputation in the industry. As a result of intense competition from larger, well-known and well-financed companies, we may not be able to successfully market our product. We have limited personnel and we must attract and retain qualified employees to succeed in our business plan. We currently have only three employees. In order to finish the development of our Dragonfly, and market it, we need to recruit and retain professional and technical staff. Unless we are successful in obtaining adequate financing, we will not have the resources to attract the necessary personnel, and we will not be successful in implementing our business plan. The substantial number of shares of our common stock that are eligible for future sale in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock or limit our ability to raise additional capital. Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock or limit our ability to raise additional capital. We currently have 120,148,852 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, and over 36,398,000 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants. Upon effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we may issue up to an additional 67,500,000 shares of common stock, representing an increase of over 36% in the issued and outstanding shares. 5 Our stock price will fluctuate after this offering, which could result in substantial losses for investors. The market price for our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include: - Quarterly variations in operating results; - Changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; - Announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant contracts, acquisitions or strategic relationships; - Disputes concerning our technology proprietary rights; - Publicity about our company, management, products or our competitors; - Additions or departures of key personnel; - Any future sales of our common stock or other securities; and - Stock market price and volume fluctuations of publicly-traded companies. These and other external factors have caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares of common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If securities class action litigation is brought against us it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources, which could hurt our business. The conversion of the convertible notes may lower the market price of our common stock and substantially dilute the interests of other holders of our common stock. As Auxiliarius exercises its conversion rights under the convertible note, we will be required to issue shares of our common stock at a price below the prevailing market price of our common stock. The shares issuable upon conversion of the note will be issued at a price equal to $0.008, unless reset in accordance with the terms of the note. The sale of material amounts of our common stock could reduce the price of our common stock and encourage short sales. If Auxiliarius elects to convert some or all of the convertible note, and to the extent that they sell our common stock, our common stock price may decrease due to the additional shares in the market. As the price of our common stock decreases, the conversion price under the convertible note may be reset at lower prices and we will be required to issue more shares of our common stock for any given dollar amount converted. This may encourage short sales, which could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock. The conversion of the convertible note may substantially dilute the interests of other holders. The shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the note will be available for sale immediately upon issuance. Accordingly, the conversion may result in substantial dilution to the interests of the other holders of our common stock and the price of our common stock may decrease. 6 Because we are subject to the "penny stock" rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced. Our common stock is traded on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Penny stocks, like shares of our common stock, generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on Nasdaq. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors" must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares. 7 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "would," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "projects," "predicts," "potential" and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performances or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, statements relating to: - our anticipated business strategy; - the market opportunity for our products, including anticipated growth of our industry and expected demand for our products; - our plans for hiring additional personnel; - our estimates regarding our future capital requirements and needs for additional financing; and - any of our other plans, objectives, expectations and intentions contained in this prospectus that are not historical facts. You should read this prospectus completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We will not update these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Our forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertain- ties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different. Such factors include, among others, the risk and other factors set forth in the section "Risk Factors" as well as the following: - changes in general economic and business conditions; - changes in current pricing levels; - reductions in sales to any of our significant customers or in customer capacity generally; - our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel; - changes in our sales mix to lower margin products; - increased competition; and - our ability to keep up with technological change and changes in customer demands. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumption prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected, estimated or projected. Because of these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. 8 USE OF PROCEEDS We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of our common stock by Auxiliarius Fortunare, LLC, however, because the effectiveness of this registration statement is a condition to their funding obligation, we will receive subsequent to this offering up to $500,000 and we may receive proceeds from the issuance of shares to Auxiliarius upon their exercise of warrants. If all the funding under the convertible note is completed, and all the warrants are exercised, we estimate that we will receive net proceeds of approximately $530,000 (after paying a finders fee of $10,000). We intend to use the net proceeds as follows: FULL OFFERING -------- Offering Costs $ 25,000 Dragonfly Prototype Research and Development 120,000 Payment of Accounts Payable 280,000 Marketing and Advertising 55,000 Other Working Capital Requirements 50,000 -------- Total $530,000 ======== Pending the use of any proceeds as discussed above, we intend to invest these funds in short term, interest bearing, investment-grade obligations. 9 SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS The following table sets forth certain information as of the date of this prospectus, with respect to Auxiliarius, the only selling shareholder for whom we are registering shares for resale to the public. Auxiliarius proposes selling all of their shares, in which case it would beneficially own no shares after the offering. Auxiliarius is not currently an affiliate of ours, has not had a material relationship with us during the past three years, and is not affiliated with a registered broker-dealer. An asterisk indicates that their common stock ownership is less than one percent.

It is expected that Auxiliarius will not own beneficially more than 4.9% of our outstanding common stock at any time. The Manager of Auxiliarius is Kyle G. Kennedy 10 PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION Auxiliarius is free to offer and sell their shares of our common stock at such times, in such manner and at such prices as they may determine on a best best efforts basis. The types of transactions in which the shares of our common stock are sold may include transactions in the over-the-counter market (including block transactions), negotiated transactions, the settlement of short sales of our common stock, or a combination of such methods of sale. The sales will be at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. Auxiliarius has advised us that they have not entered into agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their shares, and does not have an underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of our common stock. Auxiliarius may sell their shares directly to purchasers or to or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals. These broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders. They may also receive compensation from the purchasers of our common stock for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions). We have informed Auxiliarius that the anti-manipulation rules of the SEC, including Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, will apply to its sales in the market, and have provided them with a copy of such rules and regulations. Regulation M may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of our common stock by Auxiliarius and any other person distributing our common stock. The anti-manipulation rules under the Securities Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares of our common stock in the market and to the activities of Auxiliarius and their affiliates. Furthermore, Regulation M of the Securities Exchange Act may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of shares of our common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular shares of common stock being distributed for a period of up to five business days prior to the commencement of such distribution. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of our common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to our common stock. Rules 101 and 102 of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act, among other things, generally prohibit certain participants in a distribution from bidding for or purchasing for an account in which the participant has a beneficial interest, any of the securities that are the subject of the distribution. Rule 104 of Regulation M provides that no person, directly or indirectly, may stabilize, effect any syndicate covering transaction, or impose a penalty bid in connection with an offering of any security in contravention of the rule's provisions. Auxiliarius may also rely upon Rule 144 for the sale of our common shares in the open market. 11 We will pay all expenses in connection with the registration and sale of the common stock by the selling security holders. The estimated expenses of issuance and distribution are set forth below: Registration Fees Approximately $ 50.00 Transfer Agent Fees Approximately 500.00 Costs of Printing and Engraving Approximately 1,000.00 Legal Fees Approximately 20,000.00 Accounting Fees Approximately 3,450.00 ---------- Total $25,000.00 ---------- Auxiliarius will pay all commissions, transfer taxes and other expenses associated with their sales. The shares offered hereby are being registered pursuant to our contractual obligations, and we have agreed to pay the expenses of the preparation of this prospectus. We have agreed to indemnify and reimburse Auxiliarius and its officers, directors, partners, legal counsel, and accountants, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may become subject under the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or any other federal or state law, insofar as such losses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration statement, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 12 DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Our authorized capital stock consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. B. We hereby undertake: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: II-2 (i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (Section 230.424(b) of Regulation S-B) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. (2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering. (3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering. II-3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Miami, State of Florida, on October 28, 2002.
